    I think the comparison of Trump to Hitler is totally justified because of Trump's recent behaviour in his campaign.In the photo they say 'deal with it', I think may be they are implying that this behaviour of Trump is happening and people should get used to it. On the other side, they may be telling people who don't like the picture to deal with it, its the reality of Trump's character. The comparison of Trump to Hitler may be foreshadowing that if Trump becomes president, America will be in chaos just as Germany was. People will be treated unfairly especially the African Americans ,muslims and other minorities. Both Trump's tie and frame of the picture are red, this is a sign of communism so they may be trying to tie him to people like Hitler,Mussolini and Stalin. The colour red may be a sign of bloodshed or death, that when he becomes president a number of people will be in danger.

    The picture is stating that due to Trumps resent debates, they are comparing him to Hitler because people say Trump is trying to do the same thing to America that Hitler did to Germany.
